1. Water quality: Apple snails have very low requirements for water quality. However, when breeding, it is recommended to use slightly alkaline, moderate hardness of water to raise. Too soft water can not be used, because there is less calcium in soft water, which can not meet the needs of the growth of apple snail shell.
2. Feeding: Apple snails are omnivorous snails and can eat a lot of things. When mixed with fish and shrimp, they can eat the residue of fish and shrimp food, so they do not need to be fed separately. When they are cultured alone, they need to feed some algae powder, or fish food, shrimp food, etc. As their food.
3. Dissolved oxygen: Their growth needs the support of dissolved oxygen. Although they can tolerate anoxic water, they can not grow normally in anoxic water. Therefore, when breeding, some aquatic plants can be planted in the water tank to provide oxygen.
The water temperature range suitable for the growth of apple snail is 18-28 ℃. In this range, properly raising the water temperature can keep the activity of apple snails, which is beneficial to their reproduction. In the winter, you can use a heating rod to raise the water temperature properly, which can keep them active. If the home is warm and the water temperature in the water tank is not lower than 18 C, it is also possible to heat it without using a heating rod.
